motor turns over and almost wants to start but is really really rough when trying to do so

all of the gauges work minus the fuel lol… it sounded like a pressure pop and i havent had a chance to look at anything yet…. the temp was staying around 180-200

havent had a chance to really look but if it blew so sudden like that i dont think i would see water in the oil yet… not to mention it may have only blew into an oil galley and not in to a water galley… this would make since as to why all the smoke came out of the slobber tube

Im assuming i probably blew the head gasket…. i recently bought this truck and was just trying to move it to a new location about 30-40 miles away…. 10 min in to the drive it started losing power… i was told it did this before… i was also told to let it sit for 5 to 10 min and start moving...

anymore luck? or have you not done anymore work on it… i just read the whole thread post by post… i sure hope i dont have to change my HH… im having starting issues as well… but i also noticed that im getting brownish/white smoke all the time :? but i havent really gottne to drive it much either...

Thank you sooo much Carnac!!!!!

pretty sure this was a GL sold truck AM General Corp. M35a2 w/o winch VIN: 064012666 23209260873 is there any way to find the original bumper numbers? i would really like to paint them back on for authenticity Thanks, Kyle Keith

ps i didnt know there were so many SS members here in SA! thats really awesome! i dont want to ask too much of you but considering you live here in town is there any way you might be able to show me in person what your talking about?… i could compensate in :beer: lol

do you know which ™ i could find all of this in?

soooo i changed the primary filter and bled the system like everyone said got it started and continuously running and idling ok but it still is bellowing plenty of white smoke and it has a pretty bad throttle lag… is that normal?… i also noticed the the rpms i think are runnin a little high at...

ok will do thanks!

awesome man! well let me know if you ever do go someplace to go wheeling because i would love to go and having 2 deuces around would be way better if one gets stuck... i think thats been my main concern when wheeling... who heck is gonna get me out once im in?!?! lol :beer:

awesome man looks like a good truck!...i considered goin up and lookin at it but it dissapeared before i got a chance... you lookin to do any off roading in it? other than your ranch?... other than mudfest i would like to find some places to take it

curious... did you just buy this truck? or were you recently trying to sell it? it looks very familiar from one i saw on craigslist recently

We drained about 5 gallons out until empty and then only had about 3 fresh gallons left after cleaning the secondary fuel canisters and refilling them before installing... i figured it prolly needs more fuel than that and ill be putting the primary replacement in today as well... then ill cross...

oh yeah and is the primary fuel filter under the alt the same filter size as the secondary filters? we changed the secondary and final filters but primary replacement looks small compared to the secondaries but the canister for the primary looks the same size as the secondaries

what does the white smoke mean tho?

yeah i dont like using the ether either but it wouldnt do anything if we didnt use it

so we got the deuce cranked up today afters its sat for a year… we just replaced the fuel filters before doing so and put fresh fuel in the truck. it starts with a little starting fluid and we got it to stay running while high idling but as soon as we let off it dies immediately and wont restart...

thank you! mine is shattered and dont want to take the passenger side out just measure it...
